MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle argued Americans have to put the high inflation rate and rising costs of food and other every day items "in perspective" on Sunday.
The consumer price index rose 6.2% year over year in October, according to the Department of Labor, the largest annual gain since November 1990. And prices rose 0.9% month over month.
But the soaring costs, Ruhle said on NBC, were expected after the worldwide pandemic, before telling anchor Willie Geist that Americans "on average" can actually afford the higher prices.
"The dirty little secret here, Willie, while nobody likes to pay more, on average, we have the money to do so," she said. "Household savings hit a record high over the pandemic, we didn't really have anywhere to go out and spend."

Two Americas.
A foul mouthed, ignorant elitist. Her 200,000 salary allows her to buy what ever she wants. Mine does not. Food or prescriptions or gas. Those are my choices.
The people who clean my toilets enjoy their work.
They would do it for nothing but I pay them something anyway.
“Let them eat Top Ramen soup”
The bimbo was born in 1975. When her parents were dealing with Jimmy Carter’s inflation and economy and “malaise”, she was a 4 year old making mud pies.
We are getting these assaholic opinions from children who have no idea, when WE lived this before.
There are a lucky few who make it to the top and get astronomical salaries for what little work they do and there are scores more on the bottom of their pyramid who work part-time gigs in the usually vain hopes of rising to the top, sort of like the foot soldiers of a drug lord.
This is exactly why they have similar worldviews and voting habits.
Liberals have the dumbest people working in TV and radio and the news in general.
No logic whatsoever. Heck, no common sense whatsoever.
These kids have never experienced a shortage of anything in their feckless, over indulged, over entitled lives.
Being told ‘’No’’ is going to come as a shock to them.
We're in for nasty times ahead.
What’s her qualifications ?
You got that right.
I have said the best thing for this country would be for it to go through another depression. Let em learn the hard way.
I went to ShopRite this afternoon to pick up just a few
"odds and ends" - before I do the week's full grocery shopping
tomorrow.
Those 'odds and ends' came to over $100.
But my perception of (rapidly) rising prices must surely
be just be a figment of my imagination - right?
Only the left thinks that way. They cray-cray.
“You have to have new ground rules for the media,” Rubin whines. “They have to stop treating Republicans like normal politicians. They are not normal politicians … This is a party that spends its entire time COOKING UP RIDICULOUS CULTURE MEMES & fanning violence & coming up with outright lies.” Then the MSNBC host completely endorses the crazy idea, shaking her head ‘yes’ and telling Rubin she’s completely right.
That is a Jen Rubin quote, but these idiots make it so simple to think up a meme.
So, own it, Stephanie Antoinette.
Same thing happened to me at Aldi a few weeks ago.
These kids have never experienced a shortage of anything in their feckless, over indulged, over entitled lives.
Being told ‘’No’’ is going to come as a shock to them.
We're in for nasty times ahead.
Her net worth is $5 million. She’ll be fine.
In another thread, I saw this one-party Ruhle ho-bag applauding the use of OSHA to force vaccines.
When every policy and law is based on: “Citizen, you need to live a lousier life”, it’s hard to stay popular.
